Spirulina Powder

Arthrospira is cultivated in an alkaline aqueous medium rich in nutrient salts. The growth medium consists of water, sodium carbonate, nitrates, phosphates, sulfates, and trace minerals. The high pH and alkalinity of the growth medium inhibit the growth of potentially contaminating organisms, resulting in a virtual monoculture of Arthrospira strains. Nutrients are supplied by reliable manufacturers that include specifications for heavy metals and other possible contaminants. No solvents, pesticides, herbicides or toxic substances are used during any cultivation or manufacturing step of the product. The grown biomass is filtered and the paste is then pumped into a spray dryer to remove the moisture, resulting in the free flowing fine powder known commonly as Spirulina. The dried powder is weighed and sealed into oxygen barrier bags to minimize exposure to air and prevent possible oxidation of phytonutrients such as β-carotene and fatty acids. Advantages of Sunrise Spirulina: Superior drying technology to preserve nutritional potency. Closed -loop water recycling system during harvest. It is cultivated with 100% potable drinking water.The quality is strictly monitored from source to final packaging. Daily controls during growth, careful processing in accordance with state-of-the-art techniques and quality controls in line with stringent specification.
